Networking Cable ShiverPeaks U/UTP Cat. 6 1m

The ShiverPeaks U/UTP Cat. 6 1m networking cable provides a one-meter connection with unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) design and RJ‑45 terminations plated in gold for improved conductivity. This white Cat 6 cable supports high-speed data transfer and stable signal transmission for common home and office network setups. The cable is designed to meet typical Category 6 performance requirements for structured cabling links.

Advantages

The cable offers Category 6 performance in a compact one-meter length, minimizing excess cable and signal attenuation in short runs. Gold‑plated RJ‑45 connectors enhance contact reliability and resistance to corrosion. Its U/UTP construction maintains balanced pair geometry for predictable electrical characteristics while keeping the cable flexible and easy to route. The neutral white jacket fits standard installations and visible runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting a computer or laptop to a nearby router or switch
• Linking network devices in small office or home office (SOHO) environments
• Short patch connections in patch panels, wall outlets, or network cabinets
• Use with gaming consoles, streaming devices, or smart TVs requiring wired Ethernet

Key specifications

• Category: Cat 6 (meets Category 6 electrical performance)
• Cable type: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 1 meter
• Connector: RJ‑45 on both ends
• Connector plating: Gold plated contacts for improved conductivity
• Outer jacket color: White
• Suitable bandwidth: Up to typical Cat 6 frequencies (suitable for Gigabit Ethernet)

How to use

Insert the RJ‑45 connector firmly into the Ethernet port of your device and the corresponding port on a router, switch, or wall outlet until the latch clicks. For optimal connection quality, avoid sharp bends near the connector ends and keep the cable free from tight kinks or crushing. Use the one‑meter length for short point‑to‑point links where minimal slack is desired. If connecting to devices with strain relief needs, secure the cable near the connector using a clip or cable tie without compressing the jacket.

Recommendations

For best network performance, use this Cat 6 cable for Gigabit Ethernet connections over short distances. Avoid running the cable in parallel with high‑voltage power lines to reduce potential electromagnetic interference. If installations require longer runs or environments with significant electrical noise, consider higher‑shielded cabling or longer category-rated cables appropriate for the distance and conditions.
